found this very interesting website that discusses about the concepts of yin & yang and the summer/winter solstice. and for the very first time, i get to see a physical manifestation of the yin & yang cycle in the sun's movement around the earth! and it even gave an explanation on how it is derived based on the sun cycle! take a look! i'm simply blown away by the complex thoughts of the ancient chinese!wow!

wow... taht was quite interesting. maybe u'll be interested to read up on the "Sky disk of Nebra". They found it near my place & it's apparently the oldest object that shows ancient observation of the heavenly bodies (way ahead of Stonehenge). I always thought the chinese were the first but who knows...
check this out too - i ching. the whole ancient chinese system that also includes discussions about the ying yang concept. something discussed as early as 2800BC. sometimes i suspect there might be some super intelligence influence of our civilisations pass! the i ching is the chinese/ middle kingdom example. there are also the pyramids - egyptian equivalents - that also predates many millenia BC! amazing!
